Math Placement

Ball State University adopted the COMPASS system by ACT, Inc. for purposes of math placement testing. COMPASS is a highly sophisticated computer adaptive testing system which assesses the student's aptitude and recommends placement into specific BSU math courses.

WHEN: Math placement exams are administered on a daily basis in the Testing Center. This excludes summer orientation groups which are tested in larger facilities on campus during specified times.

REGISTRATION: It is highly recommended that you contact us at 765-285-1290 to schedule an appointment. Walk-ins will be accommodated only as our schedule permits.
